we just installed version 4 and had the following problem:

Upon hitting the statement with "getopt" in genbki.sh, we got the following error message:
...

linking pg_uid
creating local.bki
/usr/users/postgres/postsparc/src/lib/Gen/genbki.sh: getopt: not found
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `/usr/users/postgres/postsparc/obj.sparc/support/local.bki'
Current working directory /usr/users/postgres/postsparc
done
...
(more error messages that seem related)

We checked libc.a for getopt.o with
% ar t libc.a|grep getopt
getopt.o

We commented out the portion that checks for options in genbki.h and
got the system to compile this time. It seems to run as well?!
Could you explain what we are/were doing wrong? 
Platform: Sparc IPC with Sun OS 4.1

Thanks,

P.S: is data compatible between versions 3.1 and 4
 (i.e do we need to copy over or just move in the data? )
